Title: "I Believe" Tag Causes Religious Controversy In South Carolina
Post by: megimoo on May 07, 2008, 08:31:23 PM
First Florida, now South Carolina. Legislators talk about "I Believe" tags.A South Carolina House subcommittee is discussing a bill that would create a new license plate for Christians.

It would have a cross with the words "I believe" on the tag. The same tag stirred quite a controversy in Florida legislature. If such a license plate is approved, it would be the first to feature a religious symbol. Opponents say it violates separation of church and state, and makes it seem as if the state encourages a particular religion.

It will. It's not the software. The problem lies with a person deleting a topic which already has 20 replies. If it can be only one way or another, I'd rather the poster not be able to delete a topic and let them contact a mod to move/delete/merge.
